Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On January 2, 2024 (the “Closing Date”), Rekor Systems, Inc. (the “Company”) acquired All Traffic Data Services, LLC, a Colorado limited liability company (“ATD”), pursuant to that certain Interest Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), dated as of the Closing Date, by and among the Company, ATD and All Traffic Holdings, LLC (the “Seller”). The Seller is a portfolio company of Seaport Capital, a private equity firm.  ATD is engaged in the business of advanced traffic data collection. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding limited liability company interests of ATD (the “ATD Acquisition”).

 

The aggregate purchase price for the interests of ATD was approximately $19.0 million, subject to a customary working capital adjustment. The purchase price comprises approximately $9.0 million in cash and 3approximately 3.5 million unregistered shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 (the “Stock Consideration”), based on a volume weighted average trading price of the Company’s common stock over a thirty consecutive trading day period prior to the date of the Purchase Agreement, which was $2.86.  662,329 of the 3.5 million shares of the Stock Consideration will be issued and delivered to the Seller on the twelve-month anniversary of the Closing Date, subject to cutback for working capital adjustments and/or indemnification claims favoring the Company, if any.   As a result of the transaction, ATD is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

 

The Stock Consideration has been issued by the Company to the Sellers pursuant to an exemption under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and/or Regulation D, as promulgated thereunder.  Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company will provide customary resale registration rights with respect to the Stock Consideration. 

 

The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, and indemnification, non-competition, non-solicitation, and confidentiality provisions.

 

ATD will operate as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and ATD’s key employees have agreed to continue employment with the Company or one of its affiliates.

 

The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement is a summary of its material terms, does not purport to be complete, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K (this “Current Report”) and is incorporated by reference herein.

 

Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets. 

 

The information provided in Item 1.01 above is incorporated herein by reference. 

 

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

 

The information provided in Item 1.01 above is incorporated herein by reference. 

 

Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Seller was granted the right to designate a director to be seated on the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) for a term expiring at the Company’s 2024 annual meeting of stockholders, at which meeting such director shall be nominated by the Board to stand for election by the Company’s stockholders to serve for a term to expire at the next annual meeting of the stockholders. The Seller has a right to a Board designee for so long as it holds at least 50% of the Stock Consideration.

 

On January 2, 2024, at the designation of Seller, the Board appointed Andrew (Drew) Meyers as a member of the Board, with such appointment to take effect immediately. In connection with Mr. Mayer’s appointment, the Board voted to increase the size of the Board to eight members, and appointed Mr. Meyers to fill the resulting vacancy.

 

Mr. Meyers, age 55, has been a Partner at Seaport Capital since 2018. During his career, Mr. Meyers has worked closely with Seaport Capital’s portfolio companies, including with ATD, to set strategic direction and establish annual budgets, organizational development, key performance indicators and monthly financial reporting.  Mr. Meyers currently serves as a director of the following privately held companies: Healthcare Linen Services Group, Family Entertainment Holdings, LLC, Pearl Media Holdings, LLC and CyberlinkASP. Mr. Meyers earned a B.S. in Business Administration from University of Dayton and Masters of Management, Finance from J.L. Kellogg Graduate School of Management.

 

 

 

 

The Board has determined that Mr. Meyers is an independent director within the meaning of NASDAQ Rule 5605. The Board has determined that Mr. Meyers’ skills and experiences make him a qualified member of the Board.

 

Mr. Meyers’s compensation for his services as a director will be consistent with that of the Company’s other nonemployee directors. Effective upon his appointment, Mr. Meyers was granted 50,000 restricted stock units subject to one-year vesting.

 

Aside from the Seller’s board nomination right contained in the Purchase Agreement, there are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Meyers and any other persons pursuant to which he was selected as a director, and there are no transactions in which he has an interest requiring disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
